Good subject, detail, color, and focus. Also, I like that the shot doesn't have old cruddy-looking leaves or algae included, as some similar photos do. This looks clean and fresh. Good job.

The frog must have jumped off the lily pad just before you took the shot, right? LOL. Very pretty, and well done, Ann.

Best wide-angle lens? Two steps backward. Look for the 'ah-ha'. Ernest Haas

I've been hunting for this scene all summer, but it eluded me. I'm so glad you saw this beauty and did such a good job.

Saved to my HD and on my DT!

We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"
